Article Abstract:
Data mining has to do with mathematical analysis of large volumes of customer data, such as demographics, credit histories, product preferences, transactions, and click-stream patterns, to identify patterns and trends. Data mining is a much deeper sort of analysis than real-time online analytics, also known as collaborative filtering. Opinions differ about the value of data mining, but one objection to it is being loudly vocalized. Tying the data to the habits and preferences of a particular customer generates anxiety among people concerned about personal privacy.
